These pieces began as a series of improvisations performed live on community radio in the middle of the night, circa 1989. For each show, I gathered armloads of records from the station's library and then mixed, looped, sampled, and otherwise manipulated them. In later stages, I edited down the recordings of these broadcasts, making only cuts (no additional sounds or effects, no further mixing except for brief crossfades). There's hours more, but this is the best of it.
As if the radio station were dreaming, it was a process of grinding up and rearranging all the station's audio materials while the listeners were asleep and there was no one to hear.
